Castagneto is a frazione (outlying area) of the Italian city of Teramo. It is located approximately four miles from Teramo at the base of a mountain sub-range known as Monti della Laga. Nearby is a state highway, SP 50, which leads to the nearby village of Ioanella. There is historical evidence of the village dating back at least one millennium.[1] Most of this evidence is contained in the records of the local church, Santa Maria de Praediis.
